I've found that people are anti-hunting for different reasons. Some are morally-based (ie. simply against killing Bambi), some out of ignorance of what the sport actually is (ie. there's more to the hunt than simply shooting a deer), etc. For example, my mom is always a little happy if I strike out, but she does understand the need to control deer numbers. Her objection is based purely on emotional factors...deer are 'cute'...but she doesn't strongly object to hunting. She even laughs about the inconsistency in her reasoning. I think most anti-hunters, perhaps including your coworker, fall into this category. Most of them probably don't think twice about eating a steak at a restaurant.
